GM Daewoo unionists wage partial strike over pay - The Korea Herald News

Unionized workers at GM Daewoo Auto & Technology Co., South Korea`s third-largest automaker, launched a two-day partial strike Monday after talks with the management on a pay hike collapsed last week, Yonhap News Agency reported.

The workers of GM Daewoo, controlled by U.S. auto giant General Motors Corp., started the two-hour walkout from 10:00 a.m., the labor union said, adding that night-shift workers will lay down tools for two hours from 9:00 p.m.

The unionists will also hold a four-hour strike on Wednesday, it said.

The labor union, which has a membership of 9,500, demands an 8.8 percent increase in base salary and a 400 percent bonus.
